Started scale modelling in the late 90's, built aircraft and armor but dabbled in other categories. Took a long break in '07 to do Miniature Wargaming. Recently came back to work on my backlog(2019).

Hello there! A bit of backstory, My first plastic kit was a Gundam Wing model kit that I got back in 1996. From there my interest just spread to scale modelling. The first scale kit I got was a 1/72 scale A-10 Warthog by Revell I think. At first I didn't even bother to paint my models and was a bit rough on them... Looking back I should have taken care of the kits more... My technique (if you could call it that) was horrible. I didn't learn about putty, sanding, masking, painting till like 2004.. I always just did out of box builds, but that all changed after I found out about tabletop wargaming. Now I'm back to go over my mostly forgotten kits, some of which have been in the backlog since the 90s...(for shame!). Well if you've gotten this far I'll just say thanks for reading. Hopefully I get to work on the kits this time. Come and hangout and watch me stream builds at twitch.tv/grxcenton
